Hi all! I’ve seen a few posts going either way on this, but I wanted to ask myself because of the new OLED plus a recent sale on the Ally that has come up! In Canada, the SD 512 GB is $690, while the Ally is currently on sale for $700.

I generally play AAA games, and battery life is a factor but not determinative (as I’m usually playing just around the house). Conversely, while most ofy library is on Steam, I do play some games that are on other platforms and/or use their own launchers, and my understanding is it is a bit awkward to get games with their own launchers running on the SD. Open to any suggestions and thoughts! Thanks!

    I had the same question. Went with the OLED SD primarily to avoid windows on a handheld.

    I already have a mid spec gaming laptop which should be able to play games my deck can’t.

    If you’re still indecisive, you can get the ROG Ally from best buy (currently with the extended holiday return window) and see if that fits your needs. If not, you can always return the ally and get the SD.
